The three of them all jogged after Booth, ignoring the questionable looks from two FBI agents who were standing at the front door, holding small note-pads in there hands with questionable looks on their faces. They speedily walked after Booth, who looked like he was on a war path, he quickly walked up to his SUV and jumped in, waiting for his colleagues to follow. They too quickly jumped in the car and Booth sped off down the road, exiting the street and leaving it far behind. He zoomed down the street, not entirely bothered that he was well over the speed limit. His three colleagues looked over at him apprehensively, then suddenly realised how much this effected Booth, although he should be well used to Brennan getting kidnapped by now, it still hit him hard.
They stopped at a set of traffic lights, the red light seeking them out like a laser. As the car stopped Angela, Hodgins and Zach gave a sigh of relief as they miraculously hadn't ended up in a car crash. Booth stared straight ahead, his gaze not averting from a spot he had picked out in the middle of the road. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel, breathing heaving he impatiently waited for the light to turn green. When it did, he bolted off down the road, the wheels of the car screeching with the sudden quick movement. Angela looked away from Booth, not able to cope with the saddened expression on Booth's face any longer, she stared blankly out of the window her gaze unfocused and beginning to blur. Hodgins and Zach sat in the back in complete silence, the car now had a sheet of awkwardness covering it, which they couldn't seem to get out of.
They arrived at the Jeffersonian five minutes later, those five minutes filled with nervous and tense feelings. Booth left the car first and ran towards the doors of the Jeffersonian with Angela, Zach and Hodgins close at his heels. He quickly opened the door and ran in the direction of the platform, he swiped his entry card and hopped up the stairs. Hodgins, Zach and Angela jogged after him, they too swiped their entry cards and walked up to the platform. When they reached the top of the stairs they saw Booth sitting in a seat which was at Hodgin's station, his head in his hands. Angela walked up to him slowly, she pulled a chair from the middle of the room and sat down next to him. She placed a comforting hands on his shoulder, showing him that he wasn't alone, bringing his head up from his hands he managed to muster a small smile which was enough to convince Angela.
After much deliberation and with some encouragment from Angela, Booth stood up, he slowly paced around the platform gathering his thoughts and trying to figure out a plan of action. Once he had gathered his thoughts, he walked up to Angela, Zach and Hodgins. At first he said nothing, almost if he were unsure of what to do or say, he opened his mouth to speak but closed it again. He jumped slightly and darted off across the lab to Brennan's office. Angela, Hodgins and Zach's faces all fell after another unexplained moment with Booth, they all looked at each other shrugged their shoulders in confusion and followed Booth into Brennan's office.
Booth sat down at Brennan's chair and swivelled around to face the computer screen, he logged into Brennan's area, he now had concrete proof that she liked her nickname as it was her password. He went onto the NCIC database and began searching around, Angela, Hodgins and Zach walked in slowly coming to a halt infront of Brennan's desk. Booth keyed in Calvin James and surely enough, many entries popped up. To Booth's dismay they weren't the most pleasent. Murder, Attempted murder and assualt were the worse of the many entries.
"Right...Calvin James 33 years old...Born in New York...Raised by his mother until he was 13...When she died he moved out to Iowa with his dad...Troubled childhood after he left New York, serious assualt charge at the age of 15...Was jailed in 92 after he murdered a former gang member who ratted him out...Was released in 05...Apparently he is meant to be on probation...Yeah." Booth said sarcastically, reading from the screen infront of him.
"That would make for a colourful résumé." Hodgins said, now residing on the couch.
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
Angela and Booth shot him a warning look, daring him to even speak, unless it was something useful. He didn't dare rise to the challenge, he just sunk into the couch bowing his head and avoiding the looks coming from Booth and Angela. The loud ringing of Booth's phone rang, echoing through the lab, he took the sleek silver phone from his jacket pocket and flipped it open holding it up to his ear
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
"Booth." He answered quietly and was greeted by the voice of Cullen.
"Agent Booth, A neighbour of yours has told us that she saw a strange Black Mercedes sitting out on the street, at least two to three hours before Dr. Brennan was captured." He puased. "She said it looked suspicious, so she continued to watch, at approximately 12.04am, three men exited the car walking up to your house. She took down the license plate number which came up as stolen on our database, we have a forensic team searching the area...I'll contact you if there are any changes." Cullen told him.
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
"Thank you Sir." Booth said, whispering his thanks and hanging up the phone.
Booth looked up to see Angela, Hodgins and Zach huddled around the desk, clambering over each other, listening intently to the conversation. They stopped climbing over each other and looked at him in hope, he smiled at them, the hope slowly growing back inside him. They nodded convincingly, walking slowly over to the couch. Hodgins sat down first, pulling Angela into him giving her a quick kiss on the lips and placing her head on his shoulder. Zach sat at the other side of the couch, grabbing a nearby pillow and placing it behind his head, he curled himslef into a small ball and closed his eyes.
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Booth however, couldn't bring himself to shut his eyes, the guilt and blame washing over him again and again. He continued to beat himself up, over and over, telling himself he didn't even try: even though the broken ribs and black eye said otherwise. But it was Bones. His Bones. He thought of how much she would hate it if she heard him calling her his. He sat in Brennan's computer chair staring blankly around the room, even the idea of sleeping didn't even dare enter his mind. It was nearing 4.12am and the sun was just beginning to peak over the horizon, sending orange flashes into the sky immediately lighting up the sky.
Those three words
I said too much
They're not enough
Booth stood up about half and hour later, frustration and helplessness engulfing him, he shook his head furiously and shouted something incoherent to his three colleagues and he stormed out of the lab. They all woke simultaneously, all three of them moaning and yawning at the sudden noise. Zach was first to notice that Booth was gone, he turned quickly to Angela and Hodgins who were rubbing the sleep from their eyes.
"Uh...Where is he?" Zach asked questionably, secretly scanning the room.
"Ohh...Shit." Angela cursed, standing up too quickly: she tumbled onto the floor.
She tried a second time and succeeded, flatening her clothes she followed Zach and Hodgins out the lab and after Booth. The ran out to the parking lot where Booth was just getting into his car, noticing their existance he turned around, you could see the melancholy on his face even before he turned around.
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
"I-I can't...I can't just sit their...waiting for the call...I-I've got to do something." Booth stammered, failing to stay composed.
"We know Booth, let's go." Angela soothed.
He gave her a subtle nod and followed her. He walked around to the drivers seat but Hodgins quickly jumped infront of him, Booth didn't even argue, he gradually made his way around to the passengers seat. He buckled himself in and leant his head on the window, his breath leaving a mark but it slwoly ebbed away. Hodgins decided that the only intelligent place to go would be back where the investigation was being held, so he drove back down to Booth's house, although not as fast as Booth had done. The drive there was mostly silent, the occasional muttering from the back of the car, Hodgins felt slightly uneasy sitting in the front just as Angela had done.
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden thats bursting into life
Even though this had happened many times before, it was taking a very different toll on Booth, all the other times he wasn't there when it happened which made it slightly easier. But this time he was there. Partially the reason why Booth continuously blamed himself.
Lets waste time
Chasing Cars
Around our heads
The arrived at Booth's house five minutes later, the wheels of the car screeching to a halt at the foot of Booth's drive. The number of police cars had reduced, there was only two left in the street with two SUV's belonging to other FBI agents, Cullen stood at the top of the drive talking to a police officer. He excused himself from the conversation and made his way down to Booth. He shook his head with a small smile greeting them all, he didn't need to even ask why Booth was here, neither did anyone else.
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
Booth looked up at Cullen hopefully, and he gave Booth a small subtle nod. All of a sudden Booth perked up dramatically, Cullen waved Booth over to him and the two men walked off.
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
"About half an hour ago we got an anonymous call from a man who works at a gas station about twenty miles outside of D.C. He saw three males, one mexican descent and two caucasian, they went into the gas station and asked the man to fill up their car. He looked in the windows and saw a woman lying down in the back seat, the windows were tinted so it was harder to see." Cullen explained in depth.
Forget what were told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden thats bursting into life
"So it could be them?" Booth checked.
"Could well be." Cullen answered, watching Booth closely.
Booth nodded, he examined the situation in his head, two thoughts then clashed together. One: It could be them and this was his chance to get her back. Two: It couldn't be them at all and he wasted time by going on his gut feeling. he nodded again to Cullen and walked over to Angela, Hodgins and Zach who were waiting patiently at the foot of the drive. He slowly walked up to them, he ran his hand across his mouth and his jaw in deep thought. They looked at his trying to get an explaination out of him, another unexplained moment with Booth.
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, They're all I can see
"Uh...A-A guy at a gas station about twenty miles outside of the city called in to say that there was a Black Mercedes with a 'woman' in the back of the car. The guy's description fits Calvin, Santos and Ben." Booth finished.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" Angela asked, slightly confused.
"But what if it isn't them?" Booth thought out loud.
"Booth, do you think its her?" Hodgins asked, interupting the thoughts of him and Angela.
Booth gave a smile, he actually couldn't remember the last time he genuinely smiled, probably the last time he was with Brennan. They all smiled at their him and he darted across the street to Cullen where he was talking to yet another police officer, he abruptly interupted the conversation and pulled Cullen to the side.
I don't where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
"Where abouts outside the city?" Booth asked quickly.
Cullen gave him the directions to the gas station and Booth bolted back across the street. He gave Angela, Hodgins and Zach a quick nod. He jumped into the car and sped off down the street.
"And don't you dare come back without her!" Angela shouted, after the car had zoomed away.
Booth could faintly hear the shouts from Angela, he picked out the 'dare' and the 'without' and guessed it was something to do with how he came back. As he drove he picked his silver cell phone from his pocket and dialled a number.
"Hey Russ, its Booth." Booth said, greeting Brennan's brother.
